Why do I feel so unappreciated?

i feel unappreciated because i fail to appreciate myself. i want to learn to love myself and appreciate myself so that opinion of others would not affect me. To do that, i must first learn to appreciate my personality, my nature, my boundaries, my needs, my wants, my establishments, my goals, my happiness factor, my weakness and strength, my depression, my anxiety, and my flaws. along the journey, i want to help others who need me in the most reasonable way because i cannot help others and putting myself in an uncomfortable position. i must be willing to help and to do that, i must first appreciate myself.

You may feel this way because no one acknowledges enough that they do! Sometimes I feel this way when I do something right, but no one recognizes it or finds something (even the smallest thing) wrong, that's when I personally feel this way. You may not get complimented enough, or whenever you feel you did something right, no one ever says, "Hey! I liked when you did X!" I've been on your boat before, and sometimes I still feel this way, that's why I try my best myself, to acknowledge people when they do something I appreciate, so they feel appreciated because, again, I know what it's like to feel ignored and unappreciated.

For many people feelings of being unappreciated is a cumulative of several other issues. For instance a depressed person doesn't believe their associates would honestly care about their feelings...so if appreciation is offered the depressed person doesn't believe it is sincere.

Here are four things that always help me when I feel this way: 1. Share your success with your friends! 2.Value your work, what you accomplished is good! 3. Work hard, the results are gratifying! 4. When someone appreciates your work, return it!

Sometimes we feel unappreciated because we have a set idea of how people should show us appreciation and that doesn't match up to the way they express it. Sometimes, we have to figure out if the people in question are truly not appreciating us and decide if that person brings enough positive to our life to keep them around.

You should share that you feel this way with the people who make you feel unappreciated, which will help the people who care for you let you feel appreciated.

Maybe it’s probably because the people you surround yourself with and that’s why you don’t feel really appreciate

The best way to cope with this is to appreciate yourself! Know in your heart you're truly doing a good job!

Maybe you are experiencing self confidence problems, or maybe you're just surrounded by negative people...In any way, you have to keep in mind that you are a wonderful person and that you deserve to be appreciated :)

Sometimes, not everyone can understand what others are going through, or even realise how great someone is! This is not your fault at all, and through time, more people will start to realise this! Talking to people about the way you feel can really help others put it into perspective, they might not even realise you feel this way!

This could be because you lack appreciation for yourself, or have a hard time communicating with others.

The reason could be because you set very high expectations that you want people to appreciate you so much, but you receive less or none. It could be also that you're dealing with the wrong people, who don't appreciate you well enough.

Maybe perhaps you are! Evaluate your interactions with these individuals who make you feel this way, and see if your feelings are valid. If so, perhaps you should sit them down and have a chat with them about how you feel.

Maybe because people don't tell you often how much they appreciate you... some people don't tell it but they believe it ...

Because either there is something you feel you are not doing right or you are giving too much value to other's opinion who don't matter that much.

That could be because you're actually underappreciate. Sometimes the world could miss out on some really amazing people and they may not get enough appreciation to what they do or who they are. If people don't pay you the respect or appreciation that you deserve make sure you stand up for yourself. If you've worked for it (every work counts even if it's not the best enough or not hard enough in someone else's eyes) you should be appreciated for it. If you feel underappreciated talk to the people who might be unconsciously (or at times consiously) not appreciating you for your efforts, try to make them see the point if they don't understand double up your efforts... If you're already doing your best, maybe it's time to leave toxic people. Be strong!

because you dont appreciate yourself enough, you need to appreciate yourself for you to see that others really do appreciate you

Expecting too much from people is the soul reason of getting hurt. When we are doing something worthy of appreciation, we need to have the strength to acknowledge that we might not be treated in the best way. Still, trying to make the world better without searching for any ovation, that's what makes us so great.

You feel unappreciated because we just focus to this particular person/group of persons that do not appreciate us instead of those people who is unconditionally loving us and care for us

People tend to have their own "standard" on their mind,unappreciated by someone may lead you to frustration. We don't live to impress other, appreciate yourself.

Chances are, you might be hanging out with people who make you feel that way. It took me to the point of almost dying for people to show that hey cared about me, and that proves that they cared all along. I'm sorry you're feeling this way, and a lot of people know how you feel. Most people take advantage and forget to thank the amazing people around them, and that is more than likely what's causing you to feel unappreciated. Just know that you are loved, and appreciated no matter who truly tells you, they notice the little things you do.

Because you might be looking for other people's appreciation. You should learn to appreciate yourself first. Before wanting anyone to want you. At the end, the only person who will stay with you, it's YOU. When you learn to embrace that, everything else will come along.

Because you don't care about yourself much and think what others will think of me .So start caring about yourself

I don't think that it is your fault that you are unappreciated. It happens and most of us all have done it before; we take people, even the ones who are closest to us, for granted despite their best efforts to help us. Sometimes we just don't notice how much they care for us. If it's bothering you too much, you should communicate with the person who you feel takes you for granted so that they notice how their lack of regard for your efforts is hurting you.

You're the best one to answer that question! The best we can do is offer some possible answers, or suggestiosn for how to figure out the answer yourself. You may feel unappreciated because the people you have socialized with so far, or most often, do not appear to listen to you, acknowledge you, or treat you in the way you feel you should be treated. It is totally fair for you to be treated the way you want to be treated. Sometimes it is necessary to communicate these needs to the people around us so that they know what will help us feel appreciated. Sometimes it is best to disassociate with our normal social circles or public places, and look for new public places or social circles to engage with until we find people who appreciate us the way we deserve. Some questions you may want to ask yourself are, How long have you been feeling this way? When was the first time you feel unappreciated, and appreciated? What do other people do or say that makes you feel unappreciated? What actions or words help you know you're appreciated? Good luck and have patience with yourself.

When I hear people ask this i find myself wondering who you wish to be appreciated by and if indeed you actually appreciate yourself. Often we look elsewhere for that which we find difficult, Could this be a case of giving to much and receiving too little?

Probably because no one ever gave you the appreciation you deserve. Don't let those feelings take over you. Just know whatever it is, you are doing a great job and there is someone that is proud of you. If not, then I am proud of you. Keep up the great work and don't give up.

I suppose you feel that way because you've been taken for granted at some point of your life , or you got hurt . Sometimes , the slightest actions or words can affect us deeply on a long term , and therefore , we become insecure and we feel unappreciated . But my advice to you is : don't pay attention to all the negativity that some people are spreading ! You're wonderful the way you are , just focus on the positive things , and do WHAT YOU LOVE , and don't listen to no haters !

You usually feel unappreciated when people around you do not acknowledge your hard work and/or constantly put you down. Try writing down on a piece of paper all that you do each day (including things like work, school, errands run, etc.) view the list when you feel unappreciated and know that you work hard and appreciate yourself for all that you do.

That is a feeling and have oft felt feelings are a sort of indicator of something a bit misplaced in our system or in our life. It maybe the fact that we are always trying to gain the approval of people and in turn leading to them living our life, rather than us enjoying being ourselves... It can also show that we are not putting our entire self and passion onto the stage called life, instead we are putting in the bare minimum then expecting praise for that... Maybe there are more reasons, but these are what I can think of at present. Just put in your entire life in what you do, how you express and how you love. Try being present at all times. And just tone down the need for approval because people change their idea of what's right and good like every second...it would be hard to keep with that!
